I read Gumbo Lily's post too and it spoke to my heart. We have wind here all the time. When people visit they can't believe we don't mind it...most of the time;). It does shape how you do things, but ii's really a wonderful thing...the air is super clean, summer is a little cooler, and the laundry dries FAST!

Hey Cheyenne, I was visiting my hubby in CA this past weekend and we ate at a restaurant (I can never remember how to spell that word) called "Prairie Fire" and I thought of you! Its located in the Hotel we love to stay at and everything is Ag related. They have pitchforks on the walls, shovels for door handles, pictures of animals and crops and huge murals on the walls depicting farm life. Its pretty amazing. Loved the wind story. My dad's ranch was in the northern part of the state and there was never a day that the wind didn't blow. At day's end, you were covered in dirt because of it. But I loved it and wouldn't trade those memories for all the money in the world. Hugs...

I love how you love where you live. We should all be so blessed. :-) We experienced wind in Wenatchee constantly unlike any I've ever experienced before. I loved it. Here we do get windstorms, but more often it's a constant breeze off the Puget Sound. Which I would LOVE if all my neighbors didn't have wind chimes.

I nominated you for a Liebster Award if you are interested - it's on my blog. I couldn't believe you didn't have over 200 followers though - you have soooo many comments always - you obviously have lots of people following!! Either way I love reading your blog so I thought you were a natural nomination!
